Gneixendorf is a small village near Krems an der Donau in Lower Austria, known primarily to music historians as the place where Beethoven spent his final autumn in 1826, composing the finale of his String Quartet Op. 135. The municipal 20 Heller note has nothing to do with that — it belongs to the vast Austrian Notgeld phenomenon of 1920–1921, when coin shortages forced thousands of tiny communities to print their own low-denomination scrip.
At the village level, print runs were small and distribution was purely local. Many of these issues were redeemed quickly and pulped, making intact survivors more common in collector sets than in any genuine circulation story.
